Judge your favourite image in the LJN photo competition

Edit: The first, second and third placed photos are below.

 

One lucky LJN member is just a few days away from picking up a Canon G12 Digital camera and it's you who will decide.

Please choose your favourite Landscape Juice Network member's photograph from one on the thirty-seven pages below - be warned, you'll need a little bit of time because there are some amazing images to choose from.
Don't rush though, there's plenty of time.

How to vote - please read carefully

Each page (there are 34 of them) contains between 6-9 images. Scroll through each page until you reach an image that catches your eye. When you do arrive at an image you like, click the 'reply' link at the base of the image and a comment box will open up - your comment will be added underneath the image.

By leaving a comment in the comment box you'll be leaving a vote for that image and quite simply, when the voting time is up, the image with the most comments will win the camera; and the second and the third placed images winning a signed copy of Philip Smith's Better Plant and Garden Photography.

What makes a winning image?

It's your decision. If you are a purist then the winning image will capture a mood and be technically faultless but there are images in this competition that have other qualities which may make them worthy of a prize.

Some of you will find stunning scenery with wonderful light and atmospherics to be the reason why an image gets your vote but others might find some of the images will make you smile or bring back memories - It really is you, and nobody else, who'll bring the best image - for whatever your reason - to the top.

Please bear in mind that a little mischief may distort the result so on behalf of every member, may I ask that anyone who leaves a vote, does so in the right spirit - remembering that your profile is linked to every vote.

There are 399 images... enjoy the judging

The judging closed at midnight on Friday 18 February 2011

My winner.

 

A brilliant competition – some very talented photographers out there. Deciding my vote has been both great fun and agony - there are so many brilliant pictures entered. 48 finally made it onto my longlist, and I have to mention Paul Ridley for the consistently stunning quality of his images. “Bracken”, “Rainy allium”, “Cyclamen”, “Woodland in Winter”, “Sunset” and “Padsow Harbour” stand out in particular – you should do a book! Others that I have to mention are: Jackie Finch – superb images, especially “Window”, “Holkham”, “Cromer 2007” and “Wells”; James Hall – “Fence Post” amongst others; James Higginson (or is it David Bailey?); Benedict Green for "Chobham Common"; Horny Handed for his 3, but “Solid Clay” in particular; Kerry for the great B&W shot “Last Dance”; David Buchanan for “Charged”; Phil for “Sunflower” (and not because it is Phil!); Michael Burt for “Griffin Lake”; Mark for “Allotment”; Helen Nock for “Dragonfly on Slate” and “Polyporus”; Tim Haywood for “Tasty”; Richard Loader for “Magical light”; Andrew Bently for “Cherry Bark”; Chris Amos for “Stourhead”; Sonia Bublatis for the two St Nicholas Park images; and Greentech for “Summer”.

 

But my winner is this image – sensuous, beautifully lit, I can taste apricot ice cream every time I look at it, but at the same time it makes me think of fire. Love it!
